Page Rendering Speed

Page Rendering Speed I have a question regarding page rendering speed...

My preliminary web app is shaping up quite nicely. However, there seems to be a quirk regarding performance (rendering speed) in various browsers. For example, in IE7 under Vista, every time the page refreshes (or you go to another page), the screen flashes momentarily.

Ditto for Safari under both Vista and OS X.

However, Firefox and Opera perform admirably (Firefox under Vista, OS X, and Linux).

This is puzzling. After all, the only thing that Seaside is doing is generate a bunch of HTML that’s downloaded to the client (browser). How is this different from serving up “static” HTML pages???

The issue is definitely related to Seaside because IE7 and Safari do not flash on static websites. Does anyone have any idea what’s going on?

Thanks.

Regards,
Richard

Hi, do you have an example URL that I can view and/or Smalltalk code that you're using to produce the HTML?

You can look at my “development” URL. But be forewarned: my home server does not run most times. In fact, this evening is one of the rare times that it will be up all evening (till 11:00 pm EST)...

http://74.102.141.248:9090/seaside/goodsexnetwork

Good luck.
